G. The word endowment reminds me of the amazing and timeless movie "Heavy Weights". There is a part in this great American film when the exercise obsessed camp director, Tony Perkins reveals that his father endowed all of the lighting to be used at good ol' Camp Hope. Since Tony bought the camp it was especially thoughful of his father to donate all of the needed electrical fixtures, to provide the campers and staff with some homey brightness. ---gina m.---

H. “The family of a Little Rock doctor long interested in foreign affairs has given a half-million dollars to the Clinton School of Public Service to be used on a matching basis to form a $1 million endowment for a lecture series at the school.”

The family of the doctor in Little Rock donated $500,000 for a lecture series at their school. The word endowment is used as a donation to an institution (the school). This donation is used by the institution, the school, to start up a lecture series. I found this sentence in an article of Yahoo! news.
